Imazu Lighthouse, Wooden lighthouse in Nishinomiya, Japan.
The Imazu Lighthouse stands as a wooden structure designed in the shape of a lantern near the port, guiding vessels through coastal waters.
The lighthouse construction was completed in 1810 during the Edo period by Chobei the fifth of Osabe family, president of a local brewing company.
The inscription on the lighthouse features traditional Japanese characters, representing the connection between maritime heritage and local craftsmanship.
Visitors can access the lighthouse by taking the Hanshin Train to Kusugawa station or using the Hanshin Bus to the Nishitani-cho stop.
The wooden lighthouse underwent complete restoration in 1984 while maintaining its original structural elements and continues to function as a navigation aid.
